Re: 4x4's should they be banned?
If people who haven't got a 4x4 object to people who have got a 4x4 on the grounds that it's bigger than what they've got are we going to have people in semi detached houses complaining about people in detached houses and insisting they have another one built on the side?

Re: 4x4's should they be banned?
Despite Staggeringmans attitude when there was no need, I am always willing to listen to the other side of an arguement and on this case I am willing to agree with him and Wingy on certain points.
Willow for the record I could afford one but choose not to, i've never been interested with keeping up with the Jones's and I'm happy with what's in my pants, hope my wife is too.

Re: 4x4's should they be banned?
I agree with your sentiments Staggeringman, But according to ENCAP a renault laguna is a lot safer for your family than a big gussler....
 Size is not every thing... |

Re: 4x4's should they be banned?
Although I'm not the biggest fan of 4x4's, I wouldn't want them banned. It's the way SOME people drive them that irritates me.
The state of our roads has had me saying that I will buy a 4x4, but I wouldn't really consider it. People carriers are vans with windows and seats and handle accordingly...I wouldn't buy a car that is higher than it is wide. |

Re: 4x4's should they be banned?
There are a few reasons why I want a people carrier:
I can get more than one bike in it without having to dismantle it first We can go out with the family without having to take two cars I really really really want one!!!
